How to Use Stripe With ARI

Step 1 – Connect

Link your Stripe and ARI accounts

The first thing you need to do in order to start having your auto repair invoices paid online is to connect your Stripe and ARI accounts. If you don’t have a Stripe account yet, no worries – you will be prompted to create one during the connection process.

  • log in to ARI
  • go to ARI Settings
  • click on the Payment Selection Setup
  • read the info and then press the Connect with Stripe button

A new window will open up with instructions on how to connect or create a new account with Stripe in case you don’t have one already. Follow the flow and you should end up on a Success page.

Step 2 – Invoice

Create and send invoices to get paid

Obviously, in order to get paid for your auto repair services, you first need to send an invoice to your client. ARI is the best auto repair invoicing app out there. As a matter of fact, the core function of this auto repair software is to create professional-looking invoices.

  • go to Invoices (or JobCards)
  • create a New Invoice (or JobCard)
  • fill up the necessary data and click Save
  • open the newly-created invoice
  • click on the Invoice icon to preview the final form
  • tap the Digital Form button
  • share the invoice’s link to the client or open it yourself

Step 3 – Payment

Client pays the auto repair invoice online

Once you have sent/shared the car repair invoice with your client, they can pay it online using the Pay Now button on the digital invoice form. Please note that the Pay Now button is displayed only if your Stripe account is set up and connected to ARI. Otherwise, the button will not be present.

  • open the digital invoice link
  • click the Pay Now button
  • follow the instructions to pay the invoice

If payment is successful, then you will receive a notification on your ARI app. The payment info will then be added to the Invoice record and the invoice will be marked as Paid

Verify
